Do belabor the travel details.

I honestly don't feel lured in under false pretext, but must admit a handle ending in 'anna' reminds me of the Beatles version of a song by that name, and that that's what triggered my reading to the end.

Soooo... I travel for fun, for work, and because I am in a long distance relationship.

The relationship part started with me going often to Finland. My partner has now moved to Germany so I switched my "most visited " destination recently.

Finland is absolutely beautiful, I love it there, except in November when there is no Sun anywhere and it's cold and miserable.

I am hoping one of the next Summers to go back again (preferably in July) and enjoy a couple of weeks there when it's at its most beautiful. I'd like to book a small cottage with sauna in an island.

My holidays trips have been to: Vienna, Copenhagen, Stockholm, Turku, Helsinki, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Hannover, Mainz.

There was also a short daytrip to the Brera Art Gallery in Milano - technically it wouldn't necessarily count as holiday, however the artworks in there are absolutely stunning, so it's worth mentioning it.

I am really hoping to book something around Napoli next time, as I'd like to see Paestum and Pompeii.

Maybe in September when it's not so hot.

I loved Germany, loved the (expensive) north European cities, have mixed feelings about Vienna. But mostly due to some bad unrelated memories.

The city is very pretty.

Workwise I mostly go to Milton Keynes, UK, and it's... well... interesting. There are concrete cows and round-abouts.

I might end up in LA or Tokyo again for work at some point - hoping it's Tokyo again. The food there is amazing.

Phew, I did not think I could compress 1 year and a half worth of travel in such a small amount of words.

Also, not sure if I forgot anything...
